Annotation of wikisrc/wiki/todo/ikiwiki_as_blog.mdwn, revision 1.3

1.3 ! schmonz 1: [[!meta title="merge blog.netbsd.org into this site"]]
1.1 schmonz 2:
1.2 schmonz 3: ## What was the original goal of powering the blog with Roller?
4: * To have a blog, and
5: * To counter the misconception that NetBSD doesn't run Java
6: well (or at all)...
7: * By demonstrating that NetBSD runs Java (and well)
8:
9: ## How well have we met that goal?
10: * It's hardly obvious to passersby that the blog is Java-powered
11: * It's somewhat annoying to admin (and few of us know how)
12:
13: ## Could we get more of the intended marketing benefit for less admin cost?
14: * Document loudly (e.g., on the wiki) how NetBSD supports Java
15: * Publish the blog with a CMS we already happily admin and use (ikiwiki)
16:
17: ## Would anyone feel strongly opposed to the change?
18: * Not that we can think of (but we'll find out)
19:
20: ## Would anyone be particularly happy about the change?
21: * Yes, some members of `admins` and `www`
22:
23: ## What functionality is important to preserve when migrating?
24: * Data: articles and comments (stored as HTML in database)
25: * Metadata: dates, ordering, relation of comments to posts
26: * Feeds: feed URLs, UUIDs
27: * Media: include images in posts
28: * Commentspam: lock post after N months, no URLs, easy manual delete
29:
30: ## What admin-facing functionality would change?
31: * Accounts: Kerberos suffices, no more blog-specific accounts
32:
33: ## What do admins need to feel more comfortable with more ikiwiki?
34: * More documentation and training

38: Previous thinking on what was needed (please merge with the above
39: or discard):
1.1 schmonz 40:
41: 7. [[!iki desc="Comments" plugins/comments]]
42: 7. Facility for authors to write a [[!iki desc="summary"
43: ikiwiki/directive/more]] of [[!iki desc="their post"
44: ikiwiki/directive/cutpaste]] so that the full post does not appear
45: on the page.
46: 7. list the date as opposed to how many days ago it was posted (this
47: is because we've enabled [[!iki plugins/relativedate]] and [[!iki
48: plugins/prettydate]]).
49: 7. ability to [[!iki desc="categorise posts" ikiwiki/subpage]].
50: 7. [[!iki desc="tags" tags]].
